Our History

Welcome to Pasta Pomodoro by Giovanni.
Our restaurants are family owned and operated. Giovanni, Vito and Antonio Sparacio have been in the restaurant business since coming to the United States from Sicily as young men in the 1970s. The family has owned and operated successful restaurants from California to New Jersey.

For over 20 years the family has proudly owned and operated Sal's Pizza in Washington Township. Since opening, Sals has become a mainstay of the Washington Township community. Along the way we are proud to have supported many causes and helped those in the community in need.

Our commitment to our customers is paramount in all we do...the freshest ingredients, best cheeses, quality from start to finish. Our best selling pizzas start with our homemade pizza sauce from our own family recipe. Our attention to details, taste and value was recently rewarded with having been voted the best Cheesesteak in South Jersey.

In 2000 we made a decision to bring the success of our the west coast restaurants and family recipes to our Washington Township home. Pasta Pomodoro by Giovanni opened its doors to great success in November of 2002.
